Dr. Brennig reminds me of my doctors while growing up. He gives you his time, undivided attention and a deep sense of actually caring about you. It’s a rare (but often missing!) trait.

I inherited a severe case of varicose veins. Additionally, my veins were creating issues in my lower extremities that required attention. Could not have waited. Dr. Brennig and his staff determined my need and preceded to get things back to "ship shape" . Dr. Brennig is one of the coolest doctors I know. Very professional, very friendly chairside manner. And actually spends the time with you to put you at ease and to let you know exactly what you're looking at. He may even convince me to quit smoking. We're working on it. The vein institute, Dr Brennig and staff are tops !⚕️ Dr. Brennig is also the recipient of the Austin monthly doctor of the year award three years in a row. Congratulations doctor !

True, it's hard to find such a professional office (everyone working there), but combine that with the calm, compassionate treatment and you have one in a million! I am on more third round of vein treatment, and this experience stands out by leaps and bounds. But most meaningful to me was when I went in with an injury that involved my veins and more. Dr. Brennig was very thorough and methodical in the treatment, which will result in a more complete healing! He is what a doctor should be...and his office is what an office should be!

Dr. Brenning is awesome, and the work he does is life-changing! I've suffered from vericose veins for years and never took care of them because I thought that was being vain. Then the pain and discomfort got so bad that I sought out treatment. Dr. Brennig taught me why I was having the pain and swelling and put me on a treatment plan to relief me from all of it! After my first treatment, I felt better almost instantly. It was so worth it!! And the cosmetic benefits for me were just a side-benefit, but those are nice too. I recently bought shorts for the first time in years! I would recommend Dr. Brenning to anyone suffering from vericose veins... but more importantly, I'd recommend him to those folks that are not yet suffering and his treatments can help you avoid future pain.

About Austin Vein Institute

Healthy leg veins are delicate, elegant, and vital parts of our peripheral vascular system. Vein conditions like varicose veins and others, interfere with normal circulation. Over time vein conditions will worsen resulting in more damage to nearby veins, surrounding soft tissue, and skin. A thorough vascular evaluation and treatment is essential to successfully address these conditions and achieve the feeling and appearance of truly healthful legs.

At the Austin Vein Institute, you will find compassion and understanding as Dr. Brennig listens to your concerns to gain insight into any vascular problems you might be experiencing. We are able to eliminate these damaged veins in gentle, effective ways in the comfort of this office. In the past, treating varicose veins meant removal of these veins with surgery at the hospital. Not anymore. During your first vascular appointment, you will go through a comprehensive vascular evaluation. In a private consultation room, he will use an in-depth vein ultrasound study to assist in locating the root cause of the vein problem. Dr. Brennig will then review the findings and explain the best treatment plan for you. Our minimally invasive procedures allow for a quick recovery. Dr. Brennig personally performs all treatments at AVI, such as sclerotherapy, endovenous laser therapy, cosmetic vein treatments, surface lasers, and much more. Visit Dr. Brennig to find out how you can start living a life without the pain and appearance of varicose or spider veins.
